You can use ingest node to pre-process documents before the actual indexing takes place.
This pre-processing happens by an ingest node that intercepts bulk and index requests, applies the
transformations, and then passes the documents back to the index or bulk APIs.
Use an ingest node to pre-process documents before the actual document indexing happens.
The ingest node intercepts bulk and index requests, it applies transformations, and it then
passes the documents back to the index or bulk APIs.
You can enable ingest on any node or even have dedicated ingest nodes. Ingest is enabled by default
on all nodes. To disable ingest on a node, configure the following setting in the `elasticsearch.yml` file:
All nodes enable ingest by default, so any node can handle ingest tasks. You can also create
dedicated ingest nodes. To disable ingest for a node, configure the following setting in the
elasticsearch.yml file:
[source,yaml]
--------------------------------------------------
node.ingest: false

To pre-process documents before indexing, you <<pipeline,define a pipeline>> that specifies
a series of <<ingest-processors,processors>>. Each processor transforms the document in some way.
For example, you may have a pipeline that consists of one processor that removes a field from
the document followed by another processor that renames a field. Configured pipelines are then stored
in the <<cluster-state,cluster state>>.
To pre-process documents before indexing, <<pipeline,define a pipeline>> that specifies a series of
<<ingest-processors,processors>>. Each processor transforms the document in some specific way. For example, a
pipeline might have one processor that removes a field from the document, followed by
another processor that renames a field. The <<cluster-state,cluster state>> then stores
the configured pipelines.
To use a pipeline, you simply specify the `pipeline` parameter on an index or bulk request to
tell the ingest node which pipeline to use. For example:
To use a pipeline, simply specify the `pipeline` parameter on an index or bulk request. This
way, the ingest node knows which pipeline to use. For example:
